Louise C, again it sort of depends on the final layout. At the moment, I'd guess about half the A4 space will be photos, the rest will be calendar.
Now, here's another idea, though. I'm trying to get local tack shops interested in taking a small quantity, maybe 10 or so each. If we can get to 100 calendars, we will be able to get an A3 (bigger photos, more space to write) for the same cost. Anyone fancy trying to sell a small (or huge!) quantity to their local tack shops? If we sell to the tack shops for the cost excl. p&p, we still get our profit for EMW and they can add the extra for profit for them. Go on, give it a go.

Hi Gem, I'd rather not say now who is in, just in case things change. I think, for example, there are a couple of people who still want to send in photos. What I will say is that I'm working to include as many photos as possible. I know that's vague but if I said now, for example, that X has top spot in January but then it changes, X would be more upset than if I'd said nothing.

Ren, you can ask but I can't really give you a full answer. I'm not being difficult, honest!
As things stand at the moment, the plan is to have a main photo on each month, with between 1 and 3 smaller photos at the bottom of the page. Each page has a theme and the 12 themes come together to show the diversity of us grubby bunch wot make up the IHDGers. There are horses just looking gorgeous, foals, jumping, showing, training, etc.
Now, the reasons I can't be specific as to who is in at the moment are really threefold. Firstly, I actually don't know the DG names of half of the photos submitted as people didn't tell me. Some I do, some I can guess, others I haven't the faintest. Secondly, 3 of the photos I'd like to use as main ones are not really quite good enough resolution. Lovely photos otherwise but if I use them as they are they'll come out very grainy when printed. I've emailed the senders to see if I can get better quality. If I don't soon I'll have to change the photos. Thirdly, because of these 3 outstanding ones, I haven't yet submitted anything to the printers. I have to send them a complete package, rather than dribs and drabs, otherwise it will end up a mess. It is therefore still possible that they may not be able to do what I'd like. I've explained it over the phone and they seem happy with the idea but until they get everything they obviously won't say a definite yes.
So bear with me, please! I'm doing my best.
Throw caution to the wind, though, and trust me that it will look fab. Order one (or more...) anyway. If I've counted right, there are 38 people's photos being used and only 21 people have ordered. So there are 17 of you out there who risk missing their neds on a calendar. Now that would be a shame.
